GLYCERYL TRINITRATE

Glyceryl Trinitrate Relieves Angina Pain

Your doctor may recommend a prescription for Glyceryl Trinitrate generic if you are experiencing the pain of angina. This may feel like you are having a heart attack, but it is not. However, take angina as a warning that your heart is working overtime to try and supply your organs and tissues with a healthy blood supply but is struggling for oxygen. Angina usually only lasts a few minutes with rest, but you are at risk for having a heart attack unless you see a doctor to seek out the reason for angina. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.

How Glyceryl Trinitrate Works in Your Body

When taken as directed, Glyceryl Trinitrate works as a vasodilator that relaxes and widens the arteries to improve the blood and oxygen supply to your heart muscle as well as dilating the veins to reduce the force of the blood flow so your heart has an easier time pumping the blood back out. The pain is caused by not enough oxygen getting to your heart when you are exerting more energy, such as exercising, lifting heavy objects, or climbing stairs.

Treating Angina and Heart Failure with Glyceryl Trinitrate

Your coronary arteries are the mainstay for your heart muscle’s blood and oxygen supply. Angina usually occurs when these arteries become narrowed due to fatty deposits. Any time you are over exerted from moving heavy objects for example, the cells in your heart need more oxygen. Your narrowed coronary arteries cannot supply enough blood or oxygen so your nervous system sends pain signals to your brain alerting you of an angina attack.

Heart failure is another reason for taking Glyceryl Trinitrate, also called Nitroglycerin. By controlling coronary artery disease and hypertension with Glyceryl Trinitrate, you can reduce your risk of congestive heart failure. This can occur when your heart muscle cannot pump blood as it should due to narrow or blocked arteries. Changing your lifestyle habits can also help keep your heart healthier by eating right, staying active, stop smoking, lose weight, and keep track of your cholesterol and blood sugar.

Before You Take Glyceryl Trinitrate

Discuss your medical history with your physician to see if Glyceryl Trinitrate is the right medicine for you. List all over the counter and Rx medications you are taking and include herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements. It is unknown whether Glyceryl Trinitrate may be harmful if taken while pregnant or when breast-feeding your baby so talk to your doctor about any precautions regarding this situation.
